Learning to crawl

 

 

 

 

We put Hadyn on her belly to see what she would do and she got pretty mad at us. She is very good at rolling anywhere but give her a month or so and she will be crawling everywhere. I love the picture that she looks like she is mad.

Notice the mohawk, it's Hadyns preferred hairstyle. Her hair started doing that about a month ago.

Easter

We had a great Easter and ate a lot of candy.

Aftermath of the Blizzard

The kids loved all the snow. Jake loved throwing it at them. They all built a fort to play in and hide from the snowballs flying through the air. Sami and I attempted to build a snowman, it was a lot harder then I remember. The snow only stayed around for about 6 days and then it got warm and rained like crazy.

BLIZZARD OF 2008

THE KIDS LOVED THE BLIZZARD THAT DUMPED 20 INCHES AT OUR HOUSE. JAKE HAD A LOT OF FUN THROWING THE KIDS INTO THE SNOW. THIS STORM WAS THE BIGGEST SNOW STORM IN COLUMBUS HISTORY. YESTERDAY AND TODAY WE WERE IN A LEVEL 3 SNOW EMERGENCY WHICH MEANS ONLY EMERGENCY VEHICLES CAN BE ON THE ROADS, OR YOU WILL GET A TICKET.

GOOD THING PAPA NEIL MADE US ALL THOSE EXTRA RIBS!!!

Burning your testimony

Stockton had to give a talk in church on Sunday. We went over his talk and then he told me that he needed to burn his testimony. I wanted to bust up laughing, he was so serious. I asked him how you burn your testimony, he sat there for a minute thinking and then he said "well you start a fire and you take the paper and throw it in". I asked him where he learned that and he told me Uncle Brad had taught him. Just one of the funny things my kiddies say on a daily basis

Messy Ribs

The kids were so happy when papa Neil came to town. Then when he told them that he was making ribs they really got excited. I think they ate enough for a week. Sydney really struggled to eat the ribs since she has no front teeth. She got the hang of it and loved it. Sami loved the ribs and licking the extra sauce off. It made me laugh at how much she loved the ribs. I do not think at that age I would have even touched a rib. Stockton summed it up though as he was finished devouring his ribs he said " I wish papa did not make all these ribs" I asked him why, He said "cause my tummy hurts because I like them and I have to eat them all". He had the last rib syndrome for sure, as we all did. We had a fun time and enjoyed a great meal. Thank you papa Neil.

Princess Samantha

Sami loves to dress up and pretend she is a princess. On this particular day she was having a tea party with me. Stockton was at school and I told her we had to go get him, she really wanted to wear her crown and jewels. I told her that would be fine but she needed to go and get her shoes on. I waited down stairs getting Hadyn ready and here comes Sami with Stockton's robe and her sunglasses on. She came down the stairs saying, "mom I'm ready to go". It was everything I could do to keep from laughing, she just looked so dang cute. She has to have the sunglasses on everywhere she goes. She had to go in the school to get Stockton, the teachers loved her outfit. Sami is such a free little spirit, we love her.
